Although I was slightly disappointed they didn't announce a new Super Mario game for the 40th anniversary (which I find baffling), at least they announced Super Mario Galaxy 2 (which skipped 3D All-Stars), so I give it an 8/10.
I want to see a new Super Mario game (Mario Kart World don't count since that's a Mario Kart game rather than a platformer game) and an update on the Metroid Prime 4 Beyond release date.
@Wewewi I'm still looking forward to the Switch 2 version, and I don't mind nor care if it is not up with the PS5 in terms of framerate, so does that make me a loon?
That's good news, but Nintendo is gonna need to keep the momentum by releasing AAA games that have yet to come to the system. Now if only they can announce a mainline Mario game in the coming months...
@CurryPowderKeg79 me neither. Well I don't trust unlicensed third party accessories in general.
I remember the last time I purchased an unlicensed third party Gamecube controller in order to play Super Smash Bros. Brawl on the Wii and it messed up the rumble mechanism on the Gamecube controller ports. I had to send my Wii to Nintendo to have it fix and I through that controller in the trash because I couldn't send it back and get a refund since it expired. And I have been a wary of unlicensed third party accessories ever since.
I'll just put money to the side for the official dock set whenever I can afford it. Yes it's gonna be more expensive than the cheaper third party docks, but better safe than sorry.
@Don if you have a Switch 2, you can use your own lap for the Joy-con 2. Of not, then yeah, you'll probably have to use your couch for the usb mouse if you have a Switch 1.
Yeah the Switch 2 Pro controller was pricey, but I got it on a discount by trading in a few games that I don't play anymore at a Gamestop. I was curious how the controller improved over the original pro controller.
@Woops that's because most of those people are like a lynch mob. As soon as you're caught in a controversy, they want you punished before they get all the facts. Which is pathetic.
Imo, Capcom has not been treating Mega Man with respect ever since Kenji Inafune left the company. In the past, Capcom was making a lot of Mega Man games including it's spin-off like the Mega Man X and Mega Man Legends, almost making it look like Mega Man is Capcom's mascot. But now, despite making a new Mega Man game in 2018 and re-releasing various games in compilations, the series has been really scarce since they have been milking other IPs like Resident Evil and especially Monster Hunter to death. They need to give Mega Man more love as with its other IPs.
So far I don't see my Switch 2 overheating, but I'll continue to monitor it.
And I don't care what anyone says like they are "glad they didn't get a Switch 2" or anyone just hating it with the "drop the price" spamming over and over again. I'm currently loving my new console👍
While everyone is entitled to their opinion, everyone also has a right to disagree with other people's opinion, as long as they don't flame others. And on the flipside, the person with the opinion shouldn't deliberately bait someone into getting upset with their opinion just to get them in trouble in the chat.
It would be polite if they give an original worker some credit
@The_Nintend_Pedant Not trying to argue, but he's also not suggesting it unless he's asking a mod to do it in the public comments where everyone can see it.
@The_Nintend_Pedant I don't think he's discussing moderation. Discussing moderation would mean to mention about it after the person was banned and/or have their comment removed.
@Yalloo this is why Nintendo needs to come out with microSD express cards with more capacity like 512GB or even 1TB (although there are other brands that do sell those cards with more capacity)
Nintendo has done this with the Gamecube controller. The rumble was briefly turned off when I was abusing a Pianta jumping on his head rapidly in Super Mario Sunshine. I waited for a few seconds and it came back on. So I'm not surprised since that feature kinda makes sense.

Re: 007 First Light Is More That Just Spies And Style, Launches March 2026 On Switch 2
They got the price wrong. It's $70 for the Switch 2 version along with the other versions, not $80. Even for the physical version.

Re: Pac-Man World 2 Is Getting The Re-Pac Treatment
@Sylamp I agree with ya. And the disclaimer on the bottom of the video did say "Gameplay footage of Nintendo Switch 2 version of game."
Re: Pac-Man World 2 Is Getting The Re-Pac Treatment
@Don yes. PS4 and PS5.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's SNES Library With A Mouse Game

Re: Nintendo Still Doesn't Want You To Talk About The Switch Online Playtest Program
Nobody's gonna listen like last time, so what's the point?😕
Re: Rumour: Major Third-Party Devs Reportedly Sitting On Multiple Switch 2 Announcements
@Yojimbo I agree. Im going to do it right now.
Re: Rumour: Major Third-Party Devs Reportedly Sitting On Multiple Switch 2 Announcements

...Like me!
Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Director Acknowledges Performance Drops: "We Prioritized Fun And Playability"
Nothing is perfect and that's okay. What matters is that they make the game, like what they said, fun . Something that Nintendo is all about.👍
Re: Japanese Charts: Switch 2 Storms Past 1.5 Million Units Sold
@The_Nintend_Pedant if that question to my comment is just to start an argument, then I don't want any part of it. So don't. Thank you.
Re: Japanese Charts: Switch 2 Storms Past 1.5 Million Units Sold
@AllBLK that's because Japan just don't like the Xbox brand.

Just an error on the release date. Moving on...
Re: Third-Party Launch Games On Switch 2 Reportedly Sold "Very Low Numbers"

Re: 'Rumble Has Been Turned Off Due To Prolonged Use'? Don't Worry, Your Switch 2 Joy-Con Probably Aren't Broken

Re: Switch 2 Demo Kiosks Are Being Spotted In US Stores
